Aida is the grandest of grand operas. It features an epic backdrop for what is in essence an intimate love story. Set in ancient Egypt and packed with magnificent choruses, complex ensembles, and elaborate ballets, Aida never loses sight of its three protagonists. Few operas have matched Aida in its exploration of the conflict of private emotion and public duty.
World Premiere: Khedivial Opera House, Cairo, 1871.
The opera is sung in Italian with English surtitles. The performance lasts 3 hours and 15 minutes that includes one 30 minute intermission.
